3com WX3000 User Manual

 

1-3 

After a general user telnets to the device, his/her user level is 0. Now, the network administrator wants 

to allow general users to switch to level 3, so that they are able to configure the device. 

# A level 3 user sets a switching password for user level 3. 

<device> system-view 

[device] super password level 3 simple 123 

# A general user telnets to the device, and then uses the set password to switch to user level 3. 

<device> super 3 

 Password: 

User privilege level is 3, and only those commands can be used 

whose level is equal or less than this. 

Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE 

# After configuring the device, the general user switches back to user level 0. 

<device> super 0 

User privilege level is 0, and only those commands can be used 

whose level is equal or less than this. 

Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE 

Commands fall into four levels: visit (level 0), monitor (level 1), system (level 2), and manage (level 3). 

By using the following command, the administrator can change the level of a command in a specific 

view as required. 

Follow these steps to set the level of a command output description in a specific view: 

Enter system view

It is recommended not to change the level of a command arbitrarily, for it may cause inconvenience 

to maintenance and operation.

When you change the level of a command with multiple keywords, you should input the keywords 

one by one in the order they appear in the command syntax. Otherwise, your configuration will not 

take effect. 

 

The network administrator (a level 3 user) wants to change some TFTP commands (such as tftp get) 

from level 3 to level 0, so that general Telnet users (level 0 users) are able to download files through 

TFTP.
